Nikita's Words of Wisdom

Good news everyone! (high-five to those who got the reference) I have decided to create a sort of on-going post of things I find relevant to our lives. Little tips, hints, and guiding phrases that I either heard, read, or created myself. I hope you find these interesting, thought provoking and useful. Don't forget to comment with some of your own favourites and I may just add them to the list!

For Everyone:

  1. Follow the three Rs: 1. Respect for self 2. Respect for others 3. Responsibility for all your actions.
  2. Learn the rules so you learn how to break them properly. 
  3. Open your arms to change but don't let go of your values. 
  4. Live a good, honourable and full life. Then when you get older and look back you will be able to enjoy it a second time.
  5. Share your knowledge, it is a way to achieve immortality 
  6. Have more than you show, but speak less than you know.
  7. Don't expect others to respect you when you don't even respect yourself.
  8. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one;s lifetime. (Mark Twain)
  9. Nothing is permanent in this world, not even our troubles. (Charlie Chaplin) 
For Relationships:

  1. If you want your relationship to work, you have to check your ego at the door. This isn't about kowtowing, capitulation, or co-dependence; it's about the humility to grow.
